Does anybody have any idea what these might be?
One side has a rounded cup base, and the other side has a point sticking out.

They look like candleholders to me. Oh yeah, and a 10-spot.

It came in a box labeled “VIT-RA-TOX” (A VITAMIN supplement!), so I assume it came from my crazy great-aunt. The box looks like it’s at least 50 years old.
So why are they different sizes?

_So why are they different sizes?_
For holding different sizes of candles, presumably. :)

The resist racism peanut gallery was known for their cruelty towards mental deficients.

It seems I once saw something like that and it had something to do with a radio … I don’t really think they’re candle holders, because the cupped side doesn’t look as though it’s big or strong enough to hold candles of that size.
Does this lame answer prove my mental deficiency?

The cupped side isn’t for the candle. They’re for pillar candles – you put them on the spiked side.
And we who suffer from these sorts of processing lapses prefer to be called brain flatulent, thank you very much.
